    Very good wrestling themed movie. Good family flick in terms of father-son relationship issues, sans a little not needed sexual references.

    The acting in this movie was so bad it became distracting. I really think the actress that played the Mom was trying to sabotage the movie. It had a little bit of an after school special feel to it. I watched the whole thing to see if a plot would ever develop. It didn't. I did enjoy the performance of the old coot that played the trainer. That guy was phenomenal.
